Hi Chad

I am not instantiating them for this example, I am just using static calls
as demonstrated by the OP.

Console.WriteLine(Thing.GetVar());
Console.WriteLine(Derived.GetVar());

Both return "Thing", the Derived static constructor doesn't get called at
all if there is a static constructor on the base class. This seems wierd; I
wasn't expecting virtual/override behaviour, just that the static
constructor on Derived would possibly hide that of Thing, but definitely
that it would get executed.

Can an MVP or someone from MS please confirm that this behaviour is
intentional ?
